The amount of energy required to heat water for a 10-minute shower (50 gallons) is 2.2125 kJ. How many calories is this

First, we convert the given amount of energy into joules.
1 kJ = 1000 joules
2.2125 kJ = 2,212.5 Joules

Each kilocalorie contains 4,184 Joules
Kilocalories = 2,212.5 / 4,182
Kilocalories = 0.529
1 kilocalorie = 1000 calories

0.529 kilocalories = 529 calories

A stack of 10 pennies weighing 26.55 grams is placed in a graduated cylinder containing water. The initial volume of water is 50
BigorU [14]
In order to determine the density of an item, we will need to determine its mass and volume. The standard unit for measuring mass in a lab is the gram. Think about liquids- what units do you typically report the volume of a liquid in? What about for a sugar cube, what volume is the most appropriate?
A regular object like a sugar cube can be measured with a ruler so we might report the volume in centimeters cubed (cm3). An irregular object like the plate pictured below can be measured by using a technique called volume by displacement. A liquid (typically water) is placed in a graduated cylinder and the volume of a liquid is measured. Then the irregular object is placed in the liquid and the volume is measured again. The change in volume is the irregular object’s volume. This measurement is often made using a graduated cylinder and recording a volume in Liters or milliliters (mL).

A metal crystallizes in a body-centered cubic unit cell. The radius of one atom = 2.30 x 10 -8 cm. The density of the metal is 0
maw [93]

Answer:

25.41 g/mol is molar mass of metal.

Explanation:

Number of atom in BCC unit cell = Z = 2

Density of metal = 0.867 g/cm^3

Edge length of cubic unit cell= a = ?

Radius  of the atom of metal = r = 2.30\times 10^{-8} cm

a=2\times r=2\times 2.30\times 10^{-8} cm=4.60\times 10^{-8} cm

Atomic mass of metal =M

Formula used :  

\rho=\frac{Z\times M}{N_{A}\times a^{3}}

where,

\rho = density

Z = number of atom in unit cell

M = atomic mass

(N_{A}) = Avogadro's number  

a = edge length of unit cell

On substituting all the given values , we will get the value of 'a'.

0.867 g/cm^3=\frac{2\times M}{6.022\times 10^{23} mol^{-1}\times (4.60\times 10^{-8} cm)^{3}}

M = 25.41 g/mol

25.41 g/mol is molar mass of metal.
